Ep. 15 - Godzilla vs. Gigan (1972)

The claws really come out for this one! On this week’s episode of 2 Black Guys Talk Godzilla, Aaron Neuwirth and Terence Johnson tackle the 1972 kaiju brawler entry Godzilla vs. Gigan, from director Jun Fukuda. While things have gotten more family-friendly over the years, this is our bloodiest entry yet, despite primarily being set at a children’s theme park (featuring the legendary Godzilla Tower). Hear what the guys thought about this entry, including the Gigan design, the return of fan favorites Anguirus and King Ghidorah, the ample use of stock footage, and where this film sits in relation to the rest of the series so far. Enjoy! This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit 2blackguystalkgodzilla.substack.com
